Yoga. Everyone does it. It has found it’s way into mainstream and it is a beautiful thing. Yoga is not about the perfect handstand or how flexible you can be. 

Yoga is the quest to one’s true self. 


I studied yoga at Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health in the Berkshires mountains of western Massachusetts. (www.kripalu.org) I was young and looking for a deeper meaning, purpose, confidence, stillness, I was looking for myself. What I came away with was a lifelong practice of discovery.


The tools I have learned from my yoga practice has led me to a successful career, healthy relationships, deeper understanding of mind, courage to seek truth, desire to discover and a thirst for knowledge.


If you are new to yoga, I can practice with you right now. Ready? Stop. Take a deep breath. I mean a deep, fill up your lungs, chest rising, cannot sip any more air in breath, then mouth open wide; exhale. You my friend, just practice the art of slowing down. 


I am excited to share the tools that have been bestowed upon me. Let me know if you are interested in anything specific. I am happy to have yoga conversations!
